using your steam station
1 Fit the detachable iron into it’s
socket: Lower the outlet cover, then with the arrow on the connector uppermost, push into the socket until fully home. To remove, squeeze the ribs on either side of the connector and pull out . Never remove the iron by pulling on the cord.
2 Place the steam station on the
support of the ironing board or any other stable surface nearby with the iron sitting on the iron rest. Make sure the steam station is unplugged and that the power and steam supply cords are unrolled and not kinked.
3 Fit the cord cactus into one of the
cord cactus locations. Place the steam supply cord into one of the grooves on the other end of the cord cactus. This will keep the cord in an upright position.
filling with water
Either
1 Lift off the water tank cover and fill
with water. Replace the cover. Or
2Remove the tank by lifting off. Lift off
the cover, then fill the tank under the tap. Re-fit the cover. Replace the tank into its original position by gently pushing into place.
Filtered water is best as it reduces limescale, prolonging the life of your steam station (water filters are widely available). Alternatively use tap water.
If you need to refill your steam station during use, we recommend the empty water tank is removed for filling. If filled whilst fitted, always unplug the steam station first.

choosing the right temperature
Follow the clothes label advice. Match the dots on the label to the dots on the temperature control. If there’s no label, here’s a guide on which temperature to choose:
hints
Start on clothes needing the lowest temperature, then work upwards. (This lowers the risk of burning something because an iron switched from ‘hot’ to ‘cool’ takes time to cool down.)
For mixed fibres, eg cotton ●●● and polyester
, use the lowest suitable
temperature
●.
If in doubt, start with a low temperature on a part that won’t be seen (eg a shirt tail).
setting the temperature
Before switching on the steam station, make sure that the lock for continuous steam is in the off position by firmly pressing the lock on the left hand side of the iron. This will ensure that the steam button is released.
1 Plug the steam station into the
power supply. 2 Switch on, the blue light will glow. 3Turn the temperature control to the
temperature you want, the light
under the control will glow. When the
iron reaches the set temperature, the
light will go out. (During ironing, this
light will go on and off as your iron
maintains the right temperature.)
dry ironing
Follow the procedure above for
setting the temperature.
Care should be taken not to press
the steam button.
steam ironing
1 Make sure there is water in the tank.
Plug into the power supply and
switch on.
2Turn the temperature control to the
desired setting. For best results when steaming we recommend that the temperature control should be set to .
3Wait until the green ready to steam
light glows indicating that the correct pressure has been reached. This takes about 3 minutes.
During use you may hear a slight humming coming from the iron. This means that the pump is operating and passing water from the tank to the boiler where the steam is generated for ironing. This will be accompanied by the red low water indicator light glowing.
4 Before starting to iron press the
steam button several times, this will release any condensation droplets. Each time the steam will be forced through the openings on the iron soleplate.
5To produce steam whilst ironing
clothes press the steam button. For continuous steam, press the steam button and then press the lock for continuous steam on the right hand side of the iron. To stop continuous steam, press the button on the left hand side. When using the steam function, the green ready to steam indicator light will go off.
It is possible to vary the amount of steam produced. Move the variable steam control to the right for maximum steam and to the left for minimum steam.
6 The red low water indicator light will
glow continuously when the water tank becomes empty. This will be accompanied by a continuous humming noise of the pump. Should this occur we recommend you switch off the steam station. Remove the water tank and refill. Note: For prolonged use always ensure there is water in the water tank.
